The Waterboys - 'An Appointment With Mr Yeats' (2011)

Cover pic.


The poetic influence of WB Yeats has long been evident in the Celtic rock lyricism of the Waterboys. In a labour of love, Mike Scott, a musical luminary in his own right, adds melody to Yeats’s vivid mysticism with sensitivity, subtlety and a fearless vigour. From the clarion call of The Hosting Of The Shee to the haunting The Faery’s Last Song, the result is a fabulous feast of words and music
